Aside from the changes in baseball, it really was at it's peak when life was slower. A person could watch a game from the bleachers, or listen to it on radio as they worked.

Now it is too expensive to go to a game, and I am told the music they play is so loud throughout the game you can't hear for hours after leaving the stadium. People complain they don't want to take their children to the ball park because they get quite an education there--in things parents don't want their children seeing and hearing.
